Emiya Shirou actually didn't know about the existence of the Fourth Holy Grail War.
In his memory, when he woke up from a coma in a fire of unknown origin, the first thing he saw was blurry -
It was a hysterical-looking man with a tragic but warm smile on his face who grabbed his hand.
It was obvious that he was rescued from the ruins by the other party, but looking at the expression on the man's face, it seemed as if he was the one who was rescued.
Then, Emiya Shirou felt like he was being hugged.
Although he couldn't see clearly... he could feel that it was an unimaginably huge warmth. He was pressed under the ruins, and his internal organs were probably broken, but under that huge warmth,
It was as if he was not injured.
He was rescued from the ruins by a man, and after a period of hospitalization, he was adopted by the man who rescued him - both his parents died in the fire.
He finally knew the name of that man, his adoptive father.
Emiya Kiritsugu.
This is the origin of his last name.
From then on——
Life has calmed down relatively.
Emiya Kiritsugu was an unimaginably gentle person, and Fujimura Raika, who sold the house to them, was also a very kind elder. On the other hand, Fujimura Raika's daughter, Fujimura Yamato, also had a very good relationship with them, as well as Akutsu next door.
Miss Hinako seems to be her father's friend. Although she looks cold, she is actually very gentle.
The heart that was scorched by Fuyuki's fire was warmed, and it sprouted again - Shirou Emiya grew up healthy and sunny.
But the good times didn't last long.
Emiya Kiritsugu... passed away.
Five years ago, Emiya Kiritsugu, a man who in the words of Shirou Emiya was incredibly gentle, suffered a sharp deterioration in physical condition in just a few weeks. Finally, one day, the father and son exchanged each other's kisses under the moon.
After the dream...
Emiya Kiritsugu passed away suddenly.
Since then, Emiya Shirou has lived alone until now.
After experiencing the pain of losing his family for the second time, Emiya Shirou was not knocked down again this time. Instead, he stood up stronger. With the help of Yamato Fujimura and Akuko, he quickly adapted to one person's life.
He has kept his home in order, and entered the private Suiqunyuan College with excellent results. He is currently a student in Class C of the second year of high school.
And a few days ago...
Saying goodbye to Fujimura Yamato who ran home to eat every day, he set off on his way to school alone, and said hello to Akuko who sat at the door of his house every morning... just like the daily routine before.
"Today I have to help that guy Yicheng repair the mosquito killer lamp in the classroom..."
"That guy Issei should have already arrived at school."
He glanced at his watch, then looked up at the school gate - the school was still empty at this time, Emiya Shirou scratched his face.
Ever since I retired from the Kyudo Club, I rarely come to school so early.
all in all......
Let's go help Issei fix things first. That guy is the student council president, so the things he needs to fix are generally more important things.
"Thank you for your hard work, Shirou. I called you here so early in the morning, but apart from you, no one in the school knows how to practice this."
Yi Cheng's face looked a little helpless.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a small matter. Do you want to move this out?"
"Ah, just move here."
"Is it enough to move here? But I think it's better to get a new one. This one has been used for a long time and its service life should have reached its limit."
Shirou used his magic to check the mosquito killer lamp in a corner where Yanagi Kazunari hadn't noticed, and frowned.
Many parts are seriously aged... Rather than replacing parts one by one, it is obviously a more cost-effective option to buy a new one.
But it doesn’t mean that it can’t be repaired.
Thinking about it, Emiya Shirou raised his head, but was stunned for a moment.
She is a female student with black hair.
Emiya Shirou knew her...the flower of the high mountains in the academy, and the sister of his junior, Matou Sakura, whose name was Tohsaka Rin.
"Good morning, Tohsaka."
He subconsciously said hello.
The other party looked back at him strangely and did not choose to return the gift.
Shrugging, Emiya Shirou didn't pay much attention.
...
The next morning, Emiya Shirou went out to school as usual. When he greeted Akuko, he found a very tall and strong man following Akuko.
So tall...! With this height, it feels like it’s almost two meters...!
"Good morning, Sister Mustard, eh? By the way, this is...?"
He needs to raise his head and look up to make eye contact with the person in front of him.
Such a strong momentum, I feel like I am not an ordinary person...
"Sister-in-law, your acquaintance?"
The strong man curiously said something to Akuko in words that Shirou Emiya couldn't understand.
"Good morning Shirou, this is my husband's brother."
Although Akuko acted indifferently, Shirou Emiya seemed to be able to see that there was a hint of relief in the expression on her face... completely different from before.
But the eyes are still somewhat broken...that's not right.
Wait a moment.
What did he just hear!?
"Sister Mustard, do you have a husband!?"
Emiya Shirou was astonished.
I have known Kazuko for ten years, right!? I have never heard of Kazuko having a husband?
"It happened a long time ago. It's normal for you not to know, Shirou."
"Anyway, for some reason, my brother has to stay here for a while. By the way, don't you go to school? The time is almost up."
Kazuko clicked on the watch on her wrist and urged.
"Ah, that's right...I'll see you next time, Sister Mustard!"
Noticing the time, Emiya Shirou left quickly.
but--
On one side of the road, a little girl with white hair suddenly said something.
Emiya Shirou didn't hear clearly, but it seemed...
call?
What calling?
But when he turned around to look for the strange little girl, she was gone.
...weird things.
First of all, the news explains that some very dangerous things may happen recently, such as gas leaks and aging pipes...
Sakura's side seems to be very busy lately, Aku-san's brother also came to visit unexpectedly, and this...
For some reason, Emiya Shirou had a strange feeling, as if...
It seemed like something was about to happen.
This made him involuntarily feel a little sense of urgency, although he couldn't explain the reason himself.
After arriving at the school, Emiya Shirou felt even weirder.
Neither Sakura nor Shinji came to school, and Sakura's sister Tohsaka was nowhere to be seen...
